If the vaccine was so successful, the disease would be long gone by now. The rate of polio's diminishment doesn't match the rate of administrations of the vaccine. The fact is that polio is a dying virus; its purpose has been fulfilled and it is headed for extinction. Natural selection. This is pretty basic science.

The same argument applies to your assessment that the disease was dying of its own accord.  The W.H.O.'s stats show a marked decline in the reported cases of polio in villages after vaccines are administered; a far greater decline than is shown in areas that they haven't visited.  If you truly believe that it's just 'natural selection' and that trying to fight disease via vaccines is useless, than why are you so worried about chemicals in food.  The strong will survive, the weak will die, and nobody should try to help the weak escape such basic science.

The cold cannot be cured. Even if there was a cure, the FDA would do one of two things: embrace this crazy medicine which would sell by the billions of units, or block it completely. However, he IS right about the AIDS thing...or more correctly, HIV. There are known ways to kill the HIV virus...outside of the USA. But this knowledge is all but unknown to the majority of people in the USA, as I stated earlier. Reason? The FDA keeps such information out through careful tactics. They have no intention of letting go of the huge donations they make from companies that make the VERY expensive drugs used to treat the symptoms of the various diseases caused by AIDS. If you had a gravy train that brought you many millions every year, would you give it up? Money talks.

And now we're back to a giant conspiracy.  I can't hop on a plane and pick up an AIDS cure in any other country, at least not a real cure from a real doctor, so the FDA must have a mighty long reach indeed.  With hundreds of thousands of annual deaths due to AIDS (most outside of the U.S.), you'd think the creators of such a wonderful cure would be more willing to share.  You also imply that an AIDS cure could not be sold profitably; does it literally grow on trees?

This thread has now gone WAY off topic. I need some Cheerios. :P

Indeed it has.  I took that as a suggestion and had a bowl of Oat Cluster Cheerios Crunch; it was scrump-diddly-umptious.

I'm lactose intolerant too but that don't stop me from drinking milk.. although it has either gotta be Carnation Milk, Long life milk or milk from a dairy company here called Cravendale.

I really need to come to the states to buy some Lucky Charms cause the import prices here in UK for those is $12 for a standard size box.. :(


Anyway I can't stand the original Shredded Wheat :O

Just feels like chomping on straw..

Same goes for muesli too.. :x

My wife and I just took a trip to Spokane, and she was overjoyed at all the junk cereal that's not available up here in Canada. 

She promptly bought a box of Cookie Crisp and Cocoa Puffs.  Ugh.  That's way too much sugar for me.

Nothing in particular.  Just a little two-lane highway road trip, stopping along at small town cafes, pubs & roadside attractions along BC, Montana and Idaho -- We just made Spokane the last stop before coming back up.

Quote from: The Old Rover
I could show you hundreds of documents, but which are going to be considered to be from "reliable sources" to you? What one considers reliable is considered phony by another. And besides, like I said before...this is stuff I researched on my own, on my own time...many thousands of hours of research. If this is information you really want (which it isn't, you're just trying to throw the onus onto me, which means you don't actually give a shit about the information...you're just desperate to prove me wrong), it's available to anyone who has the desire and intelligence to find it.
I didn't ask for hundreds of documents.  I asked for two or three from a respectable group.  And if you think I'm trying to prove you wrong, that depends on what my conclusion from your sources will be.  If they look legit, I'll agree.  If they don't, I'll disagree.  You're never gonna win any battles by saying "the sources are there" but you don't bother to show them to me.  If we were in court, the whole place would bust up laughing.

That's bullshit and you know it. You're trying to look at this from a black and white perspective. That's so...ordinary-human-like. I thought you were above that.
If you got a health plan for me and the guys here on PCE forums, I'd love to hear it.  Or better yet, write a book!

Well, since you can't be buggered to do it yourself, I've taken the time to list a few pieces of information for you.

And I'm not here to do battle. If you're looking for a fight of some kind, you're going after the wrong guy. And we're not in court, so the evidence doesn't have to be presented by me...it's your own life and your own body, the research really should be done by you yourself. What I've posted here merely scratches the surface...there's much more to be found, whether on the internet or in printed form.

Ya know, I'm still left to wonder why the suicide rate in Japan is so high. Must be those damn video games...yeah, that's the ticket...

If I'm ignorant for choosing to believe the World Health Organization over some dude on the internet, so be it.

The WHO is another group becoming harder and harder to take seriously, especially considering their recent statement regarding male circumcision. They're not a total loss yet, but they've been slipping in the last few years, and they've been getting a lot of bogus reports which have influenced their statements. Of course, anything on their website is also something written by "some dude on the internet".

The suicide rate in Japan is high due to the enormous pressures of success.  Young men are forced to do well in school in order to meet the standards of a productive member of society.  Young women are also pressured to remain virgins in order to meet the moral standards set for marriage.  If neither gender meets those requirements, they got nothing to live for.

That kind of stuff really sucks. :( Of course, similar things exist in other parts of the world too, sometimes a lot more grotesque. Sometimes...humans really do suck.

Cereals that suck:

Honey smacks, corn pops, and ANY peanut butter flavored piece of SHIT: PB capn crunch, reese puffs, etc. 

Pac-Man cereal was the highlight of my morning for a while.  Its funny I immediately thought of it just before viewing TRON's post.

I also enjoy Honey Bunches of Shut the f*ck Up

also, are frosted Cheerios safe?  they're about the only kind I can stand.
The Turbo was Dual Core when Dual Core wasn't cool . . .
